Commercial Description:
This rich, malty dark ale is reminiscent of the smooth ales produced by the Weltenberg Brewery in Northwestern Germany. The Pilsner, Caravienne, Munich, Chocolate, Black malts and Roasted Barley give this great dark ale a creamy, roasted malt flavor, which is perfectly balanced with Cascade hops.

Draught. Sweet fruity nose with light caramel, cherry, and raspberry. Deep ruby color with patches of a swirly white head. Alcohol present amongst caramel and aforementioned fruit flavors, light roastiness and chocolate. Very nice. Thin but assertive palate. Solid all around.

On tap at the brewpub; surprsingly this was my favorite on the night. Poured a dark, almost reddish brown with a decent amount of head. Aroma was caramel and roasted; bit of chocolate. Flavor was very drinkable for the style with a nice blend of chocolate, caramel and fruity malts. Good for the style.

Sampler at NXNW- standard black with off tan head, perhaps 10% transparency, aroma of light roasted malt. Hits the mouth with a good medium wide body, can detect alot of the malt, finish very slightly bitter. Not bad, not bad at all.
